How we handle bath repair in Coopers
Whatever the damage, the aim is the same: a repair that is smooth, sound and hard to spot. We prepare the area properly, fill and shape it, then match the colour and gloss so it sits flush with the rest of the bath. Typical jobs include scuffs and scratches in the surface and impact holes in acrylic, across cast iron enamel, whirlpool & spa baths and pressed steel enamel.
Peace of mind is built in: our one-year guarantee applies to every job, and we will explain exactly what it covers when we quote.

How it works
We begin by going over the job with you, so you know exactly what we are doing. Next, we cover and mask everything nearby and the work begins. It normally takes a few hours, depending on the damage.
- Dust sheets and masking go down around the bath.
- The damaged area is cleaned, keyed and degreased.
- Filler goes in and is sanded flush once it has set.
- We match both the colour and the shine.
- We tidy up and tell you when the bath can be used, generally the following day.
How to prepare
- Ensure the area is dry
- Have a window or extractor fan available
- Let us know if it has been repaired before
Ask for a price
There’s no need for us to visit first. Nearly every job can be priced from photos: we need a close-up, a wider picture and your postcode, and we’ll come back to you with a fixed figure.
Advice
Do you need bath repair in Coopers?
Heavy toiletries are the biggest single cause of chips, closely followed by shower heads. Fittings cause damage too: water collects there, so chips nearby rust quickly.
It’s worth getting a quote if you see:
- A failed DIY repair that is discoloured or lifting
- Chips along the edge of the bath
- Rusty patches near the plughole
- Impact holes in acrylic
What your quote should include
- Aftercare advice
- What the guarantee covers, and for how long
- Is the price fixed, and does it include VAT?
- What protection goes down before work starts
Repairing versus replacing in Coopers
Cast iron baths in particular are worth repairing: getting one out, particularly from an upstairs bathroom, is a big job, and replacing like for like is not cheap. Repairing it leaves it where it is. Our bath repair starts from £95. We don’t add extras on the day. What we quote from your photos is what you pay, unless the damage turns out to be different, in which case we talk to you first.
What you get with us
- One-year guarantee on every repair
- Everything repaired in place
- Colour-matched on site
- Honest advice, even when it means no job

What your bath is made of matters
Composite and resin
Stone resin and composite baths are heavy and solid. Chips and scratches can be filled and colour-matched, just like other baths.
Pressed steel
Pressed steel is thinner and lighter, with an enamel finish like cast iron. Chips rust quickly on steel, especially around the waste, so repair chips early.

What else we do in Coopers
What a repair can’t fix
Honesty matters more than a booking, so here’s what a repair cannot fix:
- Water coming from the waste or taps rather than the bath
- A bath worn all over, where resurfacing makes more sense
- A bath that flexes because its feet or cradle have failed (that needs fixing first)
Send us pictures and we will tell you honestly before booking.

Landlord and trade work in Coopers
We’re used to working with agents and managing companies. Send the address, photos and access details and we’ll arrange it.
We regularly price jobs from inventory or check-out photos. That means we can quote before you even visit the property, and we can arrange access with the tenant directly if that helps.
DIY repairs versus a professional job
If you do try a kit, read the instructions carefully and work on a clean, dry surface, and give it the full curing time. If it does not work out, we can still repair it properly.
DIY kits are sold for most surfaces, and they can tidy up a tiny mark. The trouble is colour and preparation: kits come in a few standard shades, and without proper cleaning and keying the filler often lifts.
Coopers: your questions answered
Can you repair a crack in an acrylic bath?
Often, yes, as long as we can get to the back of the crack to support it. Take off the bath panel and check, or send us a photo.
How long does the repair take to cure?
Normally by the following day, though it depends on what we’ve done.
Do you hold any accreditations?
Yes, including CHAS, Constructionline and SafeContractor. The full list is on our accreditations page.
Is there a guarantee?
Yes: twelve months. If anything goes wrong with the repair within the year, we return to fix it.
Will you leave a mess?
We protect the room with dust sheets and masking first, and tidy up before we leave.
I rent my home. Can I book you?
Of course. Check with your landlord; we can send the quote to them too.
Is it worth repairing rather than replacing?
Normally, when the rest is in good condition. Repairing avoids the cost and disruption of replacing. We will tell you honestly if replacement makes more sense.
What information do you need?
Just photos, your postcode and a contact number. On the day, we only need access to the room.
Looking after it afterwards
Once the work has cured, treat it gently:
- Check that an acrylic bath does not move when you stand in it
- Use a soft cloth and washing-up liquid for everyday cleaning
- Store metal items away from the bath
- A dripping tap stains enamel, so fix it early
Use gentle, non-abrasive cleaners and try not to drop heavy bottles on the repair. Deal with new chips early, before rust sets in.
Rust spreads under enamel faster than most people expect. Left for months, a small chip can grow into a large rust patch, so it pays to deal with it early.
